TANGERANG - The Tangerang City Metro Police Traffic Unit held a raid on odong-odong cars operating under its jurisdiction. This is done to prevent traffic accidents such as in Serang Regency.

Kanit Turjawali Satlantas Polres Metro Tangerang City AKP Sobari assessed that the car that had been modified to entertain small children did not meet vehicle eligibility standards.

Furthermore, during the raid there was an odong-odong car that was detained by the police.
